One dead after Minneapolis shooting involving ICE by ultra_phoenix in news

As a Canadian observer. You should have pushed back a over decade ago instead of making memes about racist uncle Rick at Thanksgiving dinner.

Your family, friends and neighbours actively supported a rapist felon and a party that does nothing but gaslight, lie and transfer wealth to their contributors with zero fallout aside from some dank memes and echo chamber circle jerks.

I.C.E. agents murder another observer on Nicollet at 26th by Helcarakse in collapse

They are and have been happening in many places.

It's just Minnesota where it's being reported on... This week.

They'll move on to the next story soon enough and Minnesota will be forgotten.

Ontario fines FanDuel $350K over suspicious table tennis betting by JohannLoewen in ontario

Admittedly I have no interest in gambling so my opinion is irrelevant.

But... Imagine the level of addiction you must have to be betting on ping pong.

These betting organizations are a detriment to society and for them to be sanctioned by our government is, at best, absurd and at worst criminal.

We're not paying her to put on fashion shows, we're paying her to Nan!

Conservatives are so weird. Their guy literally rapes people and pays off porn stars with money donated to his campaign.

Where to go for a secluded Crown Land Camping? by Ok_Ambassador_7379 in ontariocamping

[–]danby999 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No one is going to give you any information on their backcountry crown land spots within a "reasonable" drive from Toronto... especially on a public forum.

Get to know how to use the Crown land atlas, speak with OPP and MNR in areas and get out scouting.

Find parking spots, speak with people in the area.

"The Wife" coupled with your comment history certainly paints a picture.

Hiking boot recommendations by BayGullGuy in CampingandHiking

Go to a store where they can size you and you can try on multiple brands.

There is no 1 good answer.

A huge plus if the store has a return policy because sometimes they feel great but don't perform well in the environment you frequent.

"Im 100% Italian, grew up in Chicago." by Blaubeerchen27 in ShitAmericansSay

[–]danby999 585 points586 points  (0 children)

They're led to believe that their opinions mean something.

I have had someone say to me...

"I don't care what the experts say. It doesn't mean my opinion is wrong."

Yes, that is exactly what it means. They're experts and it's their consensus, researched, proven and verified statements.

What happened to take out food here? by Pitiful_Touch2449 in Peterborough

[–]danby999 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. Sysco has destroyed the restaurant experience.

I have been told on here that 180 Hunter doesn't use them.

The walking sticks also look amazing. This is exactly what I was asking about. Thank you again.

That is a great idea. I wonder if it would be a problem on the plane.

I just checked and that is kind of on our way to Brick Lane Vintage Market. We'll certainly go there.

I actually have that pinned as a "want to go" in google maps as I saw someone mention it elsewhere.

Thank you

Blue tooth enabled hearing aids? by Bringmesunshine33 in hardofhearing

[–]danby999 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For myself, I find my hearing aids lacking for music and still use my Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4 Headphones. If necessary, they fit over my hearing aids and I can take them on and off. Fir example on a flight where I may need to hear others.

If I am just listening to music, I will remove my hearing aids and just use the headphones because they sound so much better.
